Miami worked out Rucker (undisclosed) on Tuesday, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

Two weeks after the Raiders waived him from their injured reserve list, Rucker appears to be back in football shape and is looking for a new team. The Dolphins have arguably the weakest group of wide receivers in the league, so any additions they make at the position in 2026 will be worth keeping an eye on.

The Jaguars placed Murray (elbow) on their injured reserve list Tuesday.

It was already known Murray suffered a season-ending elbow injury during the first quarter of Sunday's game versus the Colts, so the move comes as no big surprise. In his absence, 2025 sixth-rounder Rayuan Lane could step into a starting role at safety for the rest of the year.

The Jaguars placed Hamilton (knee) on their injured reserve list Tuesday.

Hamilton suffered a ruptured quad during Sunday's game versus the Colts, and now he'll spend the rest of the season on IR. His departure from Jacksonville's defensive line figures to open up more opportunities for 2024 second-rounder Ruke Orhorhoro as the campaign continues.

The Browns released Means (knee) from their practice-squad injured list Tuesday.

Means signed to Cleveland's practice squad in early September but landed on the practice-squad injured list due to a knee injury Oct. 20. The 2024 fifth-round draft selection has now been cut, so he'll have a chance to look for work with another organization once he gets healthy. The Browns signed wideout Xavier Guillory to their practice squad in a corresponding move Tuesday.

Ebukam (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve by the Falcons on Tuesday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official website reports.

Ebukam suffered a hamstring injury in Week 9 versus the Buccaneers, and he will now be forced to miss at least four contests as a result of the injury. In his absence, Za'Darius Smith is a top candidate to operate in a more prominent role at outside linebacker.

Fehoko is listed as a starting receiver on the Cardinals' unofficial depth chart heading into Sunday's game at Seattle, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

Buried on the depth chart at receiver to begin the season, Fehoko mostly served as a special-teams contributor through the Cardinals' first seven games. However, with the Cardinals trading away Marvin Harrison before losing Jalen Brooks (wrist) and Kendrick Bourne (tibia) to season-ending injuries within the past two weeks, Fehoko suddenly finds himself in a position to contribute. After Bourne made an early exit in this past Sunday's 33-30 overtime victory over the Cowboys, Fehoko played double-digit snaps for the first time in 2026. He wasn't much of a factor in the Cardinals' comeback win, however, earning just one target (for a 17-yard reception) while taking the field for 40 of the team's 81 offensive play. While Fehoko could see his playing time climb even higher in Week 9, tight ends Trey McBride and Elijah Higgins, wideouts Michael Wilson (ribs) and Reggie Virgil and running back Tyler Allgeier may be better bets to command targets from quarterback Gardner Minshew.

Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur said Tuesday that Conner (foot) won't return from IR this week, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

Though LaFleur said last week that Conner could "potentially" play this season, that won't happen in Week 9. The veteran running back continues to work his way back from a right foot injury and has not yet been cleared to practice. Arizona is dealing with multiple injuries in its backfield, including to Jeremiyah Love (ankle - IR) and Bam Knight (concussion), so Conner could have provided a big boost if he'd been able to work his way back this week. Instead, the team will turn to Tyler Allgeier to lead its backfield, with Evan Hull serving as his primary backup if Knight is unable to suit up Sunday against Seattle.

Ross was cut from the Broncos' practice squad Tuesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official website reports.

Ross joined Denver's practice squad Oct. 6, but he failed to be elevated to the active roster for any contests prior to being let go Tuesday. The wide receiver signed with the team in May as an undrafted free agent, and he may return to the Broncos' practice squad in the near future.

Patterson was signed to the Broncos' practice squad Tuesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official website reports.

Patterson was cut from the Browns' practice squad Oct. 27, but he has now found another opportunity with Denver. With RJ Harvey (knee) on injured reserve for at least three more games, Patterson will provide the Broncos with another option in the backfield behind Jonah Coleman and J.K. Dobbins.

Allgeier is slated to work as Arizona's No. 1 running back for at least the next four weeks after Jeremiyah Love (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

Allgeier previously led the Cardinals' backfield when Love was sidelined due to a different ankle injury Weeks 6 and 7, but Allgeier is now slated for a longer period in that role. Love was hurt late in the first quarter in his return to action Sunday against Dallas, and Allgeier ran wild after his departure, finishing with a career-high 147 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries along with 44 yards and another score on five receptions. In addition to Love getting hurt, Bam Knight suffered a concussion and is iffy to be able to suit up this Sunday against Seattle, so the backfield could belong to Allgeier, Evan Hull and a practice-squad signee (likely Jerome Ford). Though Allgeier found substantial success in Week 8, he came into the contest averaging just 2.9 yards per carry on 61 totes. He'll also be facing a Seattle defense in Week 9 that is tied for the second-fewest yards per carry (3.8) allowed to running backs this season, so a repeat performance by Allgeier would be surprising.
